Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Social History and Antiquities of Barton-Upon-Humber It has been remarked that compilers of local history attempt to give, the earliest duration to the places of which they treat. Even a Roman origin has been assigned to Barton, arising probably from its proximity to Ermin Street, and its Trajectus, (a) but entering on a subject which appears to have no historical foundation would be useless, and conjecture must not be allowed to supply its place. There are many interesting documents, obtained from the different public records, relative to this place; yet there is still a great paucity of authentic evidence in the earlier periods, which is often severely felt in the description of parochial districts; even the recollection of more recent events has sunk into oblivion, and what is known from tradition is not always to be depended upon; yet much has been found, dispersed through the following pages, which may prove most interesting to the lovers of topography. The evacuation of this island by the Romans, the subsequent struggles of the British and the Saxons, the bloody wars which ultimately took place between the many sovereigns of our Saxon ancestors, may truly be considered as having laid the foundation of our present independence.
